Such a fun experience with Jet Boat Extreme! We loved it and so did our two boys. Our 9 year old was a bit nervous at first but ended up laughing the whole time and wanted to do it again. Super friendly staff and a big shoutout to our driver Hayden, he was awesome! 🚤😄

Jake was great today on the busy waterways of the gold coast. But he still was able to go fast and make some great turns. Great idea to make your surfer paradise complete. Jake I hope you win the competition !
